Never Fade Away

[Verse 1: Ekoh]

So if you saw me would you recognize the moves I've made?

Or will we sit, and talk about all my new mistakes?

Would it be like it was?

Or would the feelings change?

The only constant I know: nothing stays the same

You left quick, leaving me without a clue

I'm not mad, it probably felt the same to you

I still can't believe it

Nothing I can say

The worst part is I know these memories will fade

I never thought I had to picture life without you in it

Picture me cryin' at your house when I'm at family dinner

I felt the pain and grief, but still sit back and grit my teeth

Asking why but I know that these questions never bring relief

I'm just a kid; I never thought I'd lose my closest friend

I'm hoping that you know that I'll always keep you inside my head

And when we meet again I'll ask you if I made you proud

But for now I'll just look for your face inside the crowd

[Chorus: Clayton Johnson]

The only thing that stays the same is change

I pray that everyday I'd see your face

And I know that you'll never go

I promise we will meet again some day, you'll never fade away

[Verse 2: Ekoh]

So when your time is up, then it's your time to split

The time we had together, nothing compares to it

Would you laugh at the problems I've created?

Or try to give some advice on how to change it?

All I wanna know is how you've been

And I would give anything if I could talk to you just a second

Every lesson is a space to grow

Everybody has a time when no matter what, they have to go

Confusion, losing the closest thing leaves you left in ruins

Tryin' to beat my heart back on, it's just left with new bruises

I'm tryna prove that there's reason behind the tears and pain

A reason I'm breathing but you're not next to me doing the same

I've come to see that even though you're gone, you never left

And bet that everything I do compared to you is second best

So, when we meet again we'll pick up where we left it

And I can fill that hole that's in the place of where my chest is

[Chorus: Clayton Johnson]

The only thing that stays the same is change

I pray that everyday I'd see your face

And I know that you'll never go

I promise we will meet again some day, you'll never fade away

[Verse 3: Ekoh]

I'm checking in to let you know I'm doing fine

I know you're watching, I feel you here from time to time

I hit a few road bumps along the way

And still find myself thinking 'bout you everyday

I used to beg for a sign to know you're really here

Until I realized you've always made 'em crystal clear

Keep a piece of me and know that I'ma be okay

And hold on to that 'til we meet again someday

[Chorus: Clayton Johnson]

The only thing that stays the same is change

I pray that everyday I'd see your face

And I know that you'll never go

I promise we will meet again some day, you'll never fade away

[Outro: Ekoh]

So, who's to say you're really gone?

We all know you're still right here

And all I ask from you

Just don't forget about me
